Oh yeah-- I think I'd go for the 1st one, though admittedly I kinda flip-flopped
between them in the last game, depending on whether or not the troop was
suffering from a weakness or a strength. But I think I defaulted more towards
the 1st one. Obviously bearing in mind that the final number is never more than
0.5 away from the original number:
3 --> 1d6 = 3.5
6 --> 1d6+3 = 6.5 != 2d6 = 7
9 --> 2d6+2 = 9.0 != 3d6 = 10.5
12 --> 3d6+2 = 12.5 != 4d6 = 14
15 --> 4d6+1 = 15.0 != 5d6 = 17.5
18 --> 5d6+1 = 18.5 != 6d6 = 21
21 --> 6d6 = 21.0 != 7d6 = 24.5
etc.
And while we're at it, we had also said "no ninjas or ninja stealth", but that's
all I can think of for anything that was a way-early-on decision. (Except maybe
our discussion on hit points for overly strong units, but I'm more tempted to
play that one by ear)
